Monkeys of the World
Come in all shapes and sizes!
Monkey is a common name that may refer to most mammals
of the infraorder Simiiformes, also known as the simians. Traditionally,
all animals in the group now known as simians are counted as monkeys
except the apes, which constitutes an incomplete paraphyletic grouping;
however, in the broader sense based on cladistics, apes
(Hominoidea) are also included, making the terms monkeys and
simians synonyms in regard to their scope.
